The U.S. Air Force has performed a huge show of strength by launching 52 fully-armed Lightning II stealth fighters in a single wave from a base in Utah.
The F-35A aircraft, which are worth a total of $4.2 billion, took off in quick succession from the Hill Air Force Base in Utah on Monday as tensions mount in the Middle East over the killing of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani.
Fifty two is the number of American diplomats and civilians seized by Iran during the 1979 hostage crisis, and the number of targets that Trump has threatened to strike in Iran if the regime retaliates over Soleimani's death.
The exercise was carried out by the active duty 388th and Reserve 419th Fighter Wings, which said it showed the Air Force's ability to deploy a large force of the F-35As.

The fact 52 keeps coming up tells the Iranians a war with the USA will be a revenge war for both sides. Last time that happened was in 1941 with the USA going after Japan. I can't imagine the USA giving quarter to Iranian elites once hostilities begin. Iran elites know they'll go down and that is why I don't think Iran will start anything significant.
Hmmmm..... What was the "Pearl Harbor" Iran inflicted on the US?
I can remember the US conducting a coup in '53, installing a torturing stooge in the Shah and exploding civilians when the foolproof Aegis system couldn't identify flight 655.
But Iran attacked first when? The Safavids?
Surprised 54 and not the 200/300+ marines who lost their lives in Libra in a bombing that was linked to Iran.
